Spin evolution of stellar-mass black hole binaries in active galactic nuclei 

The astrophysical origin of gravitational-wave (GW) events is one of the most timely problems in the wake of the LIGO/Virgo discoveries. In active galactic nuclei (AGNs), binaries form and evolve efficiently by dynamical interactions and gaseous dissipation. Previous studies have suggested that bina...
